It all began under the alias of DJ Smoke that Martell (born Eric Martel) made himself a reputation. He started very early to spin records for family and friends through private parties then getting a first DJ residency in his hometown Saguenay at the age of 18.
However, we had to wait until 2004 to see our turntablist's career taking its big jump in the Great Montreal area to become one the biggest names on Quebec's Electronic Music Scene, having brought his sound to over 125 clubs and venues!

Martell swiftly put his own touch by an overwhelming energy and a killer dancefloor instinct that leaves nobody indifferent! An artist mastering crowds like none, he proved himself as a phenomenon in many DJ contests, winning awards making him more than just a disc-jockey!
Musically talented delighting clubbers, Martell established residencies in top-renowned institutions of Montreal – legendary-now-defunct Red Lite Afterhours and hip/classy 1234 – where he had the pleasure to work alongside both notable MC Mario and Vito V, among Canada's most respected DJs/producers.

An outstanding DJ, this artist rocked party-goers on the Main's 'Le Loft' (St. Laurent blvd.) while his beat kept grooving the air LIVE on CKOI 96.9 every Tuesday Nights.
Always in touch with the crowd, Martell dazzled thousands of fans at the Beachclub of Pointe-Calumet in 2014 by a stunning performance that nobody is yet to forget! That was the moment he realized he was up to the next level!

Even with an enviable reputation due to his achievements, his name (DJ Smoke) being stuck with many remixes and successful bootlegs, Eric undertakes in 2016 a major shift and decides from now on to perform under a new name: MARTELL
This radical change means a new sound for Martel, which already imposes itself with a first original production (Alpha), not to mention his latest remix “I Took A Pill in Ibiza” displaying over 300,000 plays on Soundcloud!

Ambitious and proud resident-DJ at the Café d'Époque (Mont Tremblant) on a weekly basis, Martell is now working to release his first official EP and upcoming productions as well. Stay Tuned!

ORIMUS formerly known as Aneesh Chengappa, is one of India’s genre-blending producers redefining modern electronic music. Known for blending the raw expressiveness of live instruments with cutting-edge electronic elements, ORIMUS weaves house, future bass, Hindustani fusion, and Middle Eastern influences into emotionally rich, genre-defying soundscapes.

His musical journey began at just 10 years old, driven purely by curiosity and self-teaching. In 2016, his breakout track Fruit Juice was featured as the opening song on Martin Garrix Radio, later landing on global Spotify Viral Hits, and international stations like Radio 538, NRJ, and Juice FM. ​

His track Tubes later crossed 2.5 million streams, contributing to a growing catalog that has now surpassed 5 million global plays across Spotify, YouTube, and SoundCloud.

Between 2016 and 2019, Aneesh performed over 50 shows across India, captivating audiences with high-energy sets that blended future house, bass house, techno, and deep house—while seamlessly integrating pop and rap for an eclectic, immersive experience.

In 2021, he explored a more mellow, R&B-inspired sound under the alias Fuchatone—short for “Future Tonality”—a creative experiment that reflected a more introspective and genre-fluid approach. 

In 2022, driven by a desire to push his artistic boundaries and connect with the global music community, he moved to Berlin—a city known for its vibrant electronic scene and experimental spirit. The move marked a turning point, influencing his sonic evolution and laying the groundwork for his debut album.

His work has also made its mark in pop culture. That same year, five of his tracks were featured in the Netflix series Eternally Confused and Eager for Love, and his song Fusion was selected by designer Manish Malhotra as the soundtrack to the Diffuse collection at Lakmé Fashion Week.

Now reimagined as ORIMUS, Aneesh enters a bold new chapter—marked by artistic transformation, sonic storytelling, and a deep blend of tradition and innovation. His latest debut album MERAKI reflects his journey of self-discovery, awareness and introspection.
